I wouldn't mind a well made MMO set in the SW universe, but they should keep away from the era that the KotOR games are set in. Rather use the Exar Kun era.
Exactly.. look at what happened to Star Wars Galaxies, everyone turned to Jedi after the last update. If everyone is a Jedi then doesnt that kill most of the games design?
They should just continue with the RPG method and stay away from MMO.
Heh, I agree. KOTOR-era is much better a setting for an MMO than Galaxies is.
Though I'm personally not a great fan of MMOs, nor do I think KOTOR was the great game most people say it is, so I'm going to be not really keen on this by default.
sad but true. lucasarts will most assuredly bleed us. if the fee is too high i'm not biting. final fantasy 11 for example, 10$ a month (lol) which amounts to double what your paying for xboxlive. under 5$ and ill go for it.

I wouldn't expect it to be below 10$ a month, WoW is 15$ a month and that doesn't seem to stop people from playing it (the non-existing End Game however does). And knowing Lucasarts they will try to squeeze as much money out of us as they can.
i dont think they'll get away with that in the xbox market. phantasy star and final fantasy tried that crap. sure people will join, but real momentum requires more than a handful of fanboys.

Again, if you kept the same battle system, you would very quickly find out how crap the game would be. It is insane to want that. Every single fight would be intensly boring as such a hosable system is hosed like crazy. Total disaster.
And Guold Wars is not truly persistent in the same way. There is no real way they are going to use a Guild Wars style model.

And again, I said I would consider it if they kept the same battle system and model that Guild Wars.
If it cant be done, then I dont really care then, because I would have no interest in it. I liked KOTAR for the battle system and story, if they take away the battle system, I wont play it.
